Follow the path of Dao from infancy

Chapter 268 - 44: Single-handedly Sweeping Across Three Thousand Li (Two Chapters Combined)

The black bird shrieked in horror, looking towards the source of the flying sword.

There, a figure was rushing toward it with a burst of Flight Speed Control that alarmed it.

The black bird quickly turned to escape toward another direction, but with a wing missing, its speed was greatly reduced. It unleashed its innate Demon talents and peerless technique, using Demonic Qi to form the shadow of a wing, while the wild wind around it split apart, offering it an unimpeded path.

It darted away like a sharp arrow, but suddenly, the space around it seemed to collapse, closing in on it swiftly.

Bang!

The black bird's body was tightly grasped, struggling violently in mid-air.

Li Hao's figure stepped forward as the Dragon Soar Sword circled back from afar to its sheath in his hand.

"So tiny, Heavenly Human Realm?"

Li Hao sized up the black bird, which revealed its true form to be only half a meter in size:

"I heard there's a force among the Demons named Tianji Palace, modelled after Tianji Tower, made up of a group of weak beasts and birds, roaming among various Demon tribes, conveying information, trading information for survival, adept at hiding and searching..."

The black bird, upon hearing the youth's monologue, had its pupils contract in fear.

It had recognized the youth, that peerless genius stationed at Heavenly Gate Pass. How could he appear so deep within Demon territory?

If it was killed here, even the Dayu Divine Dynasty would not be able to avenge it.

"Spare me, I'm just a minor Demon, cultivating by absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon, I have never harmed a human life..."

The black bird hurriedly begged for mercy, no longer daring to struggle.

In its information, this youth could tear apart Demons of the Three Immortal Realms with his bare hands, let alone itself.

"Your body reeks of blood and flesh, not as clean as you claim."

Li Hao said softly.

His gaze swept around, and his Divine Soul was deployed with a pressuring immortal power inherent to it, making the black bird shudder.

His Divine Soul scoured the surroundings, following the traces of Demonic Qi from the black bird to locate a mountaintop, where a small amount of Demonic Qi was gathered, likely its lair.

"Let's go, take a tour of your nest."

Li Hao used his control over objects to carry the black bird, and flew towards the mountaintop.

"Spare me, I feed on the flesh of Demons, I swear I've never harmed a human..."

The black bird implored in terror.

But Li Hao ignored him.

"You deserve death!"

The black bird, filled with rage, its eyes blazing with ferocity, suddenly struggled and lunged at Li Hao.

But before it could get close, it was stopped by the force controlling objects.

The black bird despaired, casting a hateful glance at Li Hao. Its life force surged within, then it spat out a mouthful of blood, and its Demonic Qi scattered.

Li Hao looked on in surprise as the life force of the black bird quickly dissipated, choosing suicide?

"I haven't even started to interrogate you."

A thought crossed Li Hao's mind—could it really be Tianji Palace? No ordinary Bird Demon would seek death so readily.

Even for Tianji Palace, to cultivate such determination to die was quite commendable.

Li Hao squeezed its body, finding its heart torn apart by Demonic Qi, rendered useless.

But within its neck pouch, there lay two blood-red jade-like gemstones.

The gems were filled with a rich, fragrant scent of blood and flesh, and extremely vigorous Demonic energy.

Li Hao pocketed them, thinking that these treats would be quite good for the little white fox.

Afterward, Li Hao headed straight for the mountaintop.

...

Inside the Lava Cave.

The three-headed leader was discussing whether to accept the invitation from Dragon Soar.

The reason they had refrained from discussing it in front of the Tianji Palace Bird Demon was to avoid providing free information.

"The trend is clear, Dragon Soar's move to attack Liangzhou isn't a spur-of-the-moment decision, but a long-standing scheme."

"The rewards promised by Dragon Soar are quite attractive, I think it's worth the risk to give it a shot. At worst, we'll just be wanted and have to retreat back to the Great Wilderness Heaven."

"Are you stupid? Once we join Dragon Soar, what's there to fear from a wanted notice?"

Two of the heads discussed, while the largest head in the middle remained silent.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a breeze blew into the cave.

All three heads looked at once, seeing a figure float in gracefully.

With their arrival, the scorching heat inside the cave seemed to dip sharply.

On the rocky walls, those Demons that lay like geckos in deep slumber were all startled awake, looking in unison toward the youth entering the cave. Their eyes, lit with Demonic ferocity, were fixed on him.

"Human Race?!"

Upon recognizing the youth, the three-headed leader blinked, its expression shifting.

"That portrait provided by Tianji Palace earlier... it's him, isn't it?"

"The prodigy from the Li Family?"

The two side heads gazed at Li Hao in shock, not expecting the target they just had the black bird gather information on to appear before them.

Then, they noticed Li Hao holding a black bird that had already died.

It was none other than the same Tianji Palace leader who had just left here.

The massive middle head's eyes glowed with fiery golden light, looking past Li Hao, scanning the passage behind him for any hidden figures.

Feng accompanied Li Hao but was now leaning on a hillside outside the cave, leisurely drinking wine.

Too far to detect Feng Boping's presence, the three-headed leader confirmed that only the young man was inside the cave.

Is this...

a delivery?

"It feels like I'm dreaming."

"Is this a pleasant dream? I really don't want to wake up!"

The two snake heads chuckled.

Yet, the massive snake head in the middle stared at Li Hao: "Human, what brings you here?"

Li Hao glanced around the cave. Previously he had seen only a small amount of Demonic Qi on the mountaintop, but now that he was inside, he found there were quite a few Demons in the cave, including one really big creature.
